Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Austin

Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center in Austin offers intensive outpatient care for adults with mood, anxiety, and trauma-related disorders.
Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center provides multidisciplinary care under the leadership of internationally recognized experts with a combined 200 years of experience. The IOP includes programming 3-4 hours per day, 3-5 days per week, promoting wellness and relapse prevention planning. The IOP includes one weekly individual session and group therapy experiences such as process groups and skill building groups. The IOP provides a flexible approach that allows clients to tend to their personal responsibilities and live at home while attending treatment.
Guided by Pathlight's compassionate team, clients grow in their ability to understand their mind and body using both evidence-based therapies and complementary methods like meditation, yoga, and mindfulness. For trauma-related disorders in particular, Pathlight Mood & Anxiety Center uses a form of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) called exposure and response prevention and behavioral activation to help relieve the learned avoidance, anxiety, and fear that often develops following a traumatic event. Pathlight also uses acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) to help clients create a rich and meaningful life while also being able to accept the pain that inevitably comes with life.
In an effort to support each client’s journey to recovery, the team collaborates with existing outpatient teams to discuss treatment history and goals, and touches base weekly to give progress updates. If a client does not have an existing outpatient team, Pathlight clinicians can make referrals for therapists and psychiatrists. Pathlight’s support for clients and families does not end at the time of discharge–rather, the treatment team carefully develops a personalized discharge plan, and offers several aftercare services and alumni support programs.
